In his latest article, three-time top 200 finisher Lateriser is thinking of two possible transfer routes before this evening’s Double Gameweek 26 deadline.

Reinvigorated after benefitting from Cole Palmer’s (£10.5m) hat-trick, he outlines his Fantasy Premier League (FPL) plan between now and Blank Gameweek 31.

FPL 2025/26 first draft team reveals: Triple Forest, Everton + Chelsea

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in again. I was heading into the Gameweek in a very relaxed manner, realising that any hope of respectability this season had ended, though I’d still play very seriously and put plenty of thought and research into all decisions.

Then, the FPL gods gave me a gift, like Marc Guehi (£5.2m) from the first half of this season, as I managed to get a 96-point Gameweek that pushed me from 1.7m to 1.0m in the worldwide ranks. I received a Palmer hat-trick, as all my midfielders and most defenders came through.

I did recently mention that I’ve enjoyed some isolated FPL thinking, cutting down a fair amount of ‘need for validation’ in my moves, as well as FPL content. It’s definitely given me more thinking space, and I’ve enjoyed the whole process, for now.

GETTING A THIRD ARSENAL PLAYER

    Raya (dub)
    Gabriel timber alderete andersen (rodon)
    Bruno mbeumo enzo cherki (szobo)
    Igor jesua haaland (guiu) 2.8ITB 0FT

    Any thing worth a hit?

    A) szobo > Rodgers
    B) rodon > hill/semenyo

    Anything I'm missing?

      Quite like munoz for a hit, but then I can't afford jesus > thiago next week

      I'd rather WC than take a hit here. But still, neither for now. The DGW will boost your score, then decisions will probably be easier next GW

    A) Gudmundsson -> Munoz (Bench DCL) with idea of Potts ->Dewsbury-Hall next week
    B) Tarkowski -> Munoz (Play DCL this week and swap to Thiago next week
    C) DCL -> Mane (Potts to Cunha/Semenyo next week

      B

    Triple-captaining a defender in a DGW, but any clean sheets he gets could end up hurting my rank... :/

      No CS, now who's laughing

    Bench Enzo, Wirtz or Ekitike?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      17 days, 22 hours ago

      This can't be the full list, imo. Are you starting someone like Mane over them?

      1. misasarp
        • 3 Years
        17 days, 22 hours ago

        Full list is:
        Kelleher
        Gabriel, Timber, Chalobah, Richards
        Bruno, Rice, Semenyo, (Enzo), (Wirtz)
        (Ekitike), Joao Pedro
        other subs: Verbruggen, Thiago, O'Reilly

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years
          17 days, 22 hours ago

          Bench Chalobah

          1. misasarp
            • 3 Years
            17 days, 22 hours ago

            That might be right, thanks.

        2. misasarp

          Not far from BB, but Thiago and Verbruggen will most likely be 2 pts each. O'Reilly might be 6 if plays and one Enzo, Wirtz, Ekitike might get some too.

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years

      Wirtz

  5. Ze_Austin

    Decided to delay Tarkowski to Hill, to have 2 FTs next GW in case something comes up over the many games before next deadline

    TC and BB will be when I see better opportunities. They don't both have to be DGWs, for me. Capping Gabriel vs Brentford is enough of a risk for me here. 109.6 TV means I can hit BB in any random SGW

    Good luck folks!

A) NOR>Calafori
B) Rogers>Rice
    C) Rogers and Bart> Sarr and Raya
    D) Kroupi, Timber and Rogers> Havertz, Calafori and Sarr
    E) Potts>Zubimendi
